And how much effort are you putting into understanding his views? Seems to me you're writing him off as wrong just as quickly as he is doing to others.

I read his posts and I understood what he said. I disagreed with his justification and have determined that he is a little snot-nosed punk who doesn't have enough knowledge of people, history, or society to be able to make the claims he is making or enough maturity to listen to those who do know enough.

Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.

Actually I kinda see where he's coming from. I explain why in post 83 (I think) of this thread if you haven't already read it.
